The plan for our second-to-last day was Shibuya. From Shinagawa, it was five stops on the Yamanote Line.


The company where I interned years ago was in Shibuya, so I know the area relatively well. Our first stop, though, was somewhere I had never been: MIYASHITA PARK. It was renovated in 2020 into a multi-level urban park, with greenery on the rooftop and a shopping mall below. I remember reading about its reopening during the pandemic and deciding that I wanted to see it someday.
The sun was pretty strong that day, though, and our daughter was getting impatient, so we only walked from one end to the other.

We found a restaurant inside the mall for lunch. Our daughter only drank apple juice.

After lunch, we walked over to HARBS Shibuya Hikarie ShinQs Store, where my wife finally had the chance to choose the cake she wanted in the shop.
Even though it was a Tuesday, we still had to wait a while before getting seated. Fortunately, the mall itself was nice enough to browse.
The adults had cake, and our daughter had another premium apple juice. Even the ice cubes were made of apple juice.

After leaving HARBS, we went over to browse LOFT.


We had originally planned to go to SHIBUYA SKY, but we had not done our homework and did not realize it was still so popular. Same-day tickets were completely sold out, so we had to settle for the night view from the twelfth floor.

After the night view, we bought strawberries from the supermarket downstairs and brought them back to the hotel.
That night, I wanted to go to a nearby convenience store. Since changing clothes felt like too much trouble, I let our daughter go out in just her bodysuit, thinking it would only be a quick errand. Of course, we ended up walking quite far before finding a convenience store.
